I thank you all here for your replies and support it helps a lot and I do feel better slightly.

I will try to get to know the inner me and stop avoiding her and running away from my own power.I am going to stop being afraid of me and not worry about upsetting other people.

I'm sorry to hear you had a bad experience with a therapist. I've had my share as well. I took a break away from them for about 1 year and then I set out to find my own. I did not let my doctor, social workers etc... find my therapist. I am not pushing the therapist idea because I don't want to add stress/anxiety to your situation. You must always do what is best for you and no one knows that better than you.

I hope your treatments are favorable in yielding the results you are hoping for and I am glad to hear that you are still fighting for the inner you....don't give up! She is in there and she can't wait to embrace you .

I wish you well and every success. Be strong and know that you are heading in the right direction. You will make it!

If you don't mind sharing (and if you do it is perfectly okay), please keep us posted on how you are doing? By the way, how was your day?

Be good to you always
